It's turning into a bit of a can of worms, but it's good to get this stuff thrashed out before we get started.
AlohaStation, I can see pros and cons for doing the draw at the end - flynny has already explained one of the cons, the "Coals to Newcastle" scenario - but I'd still I'd be happy with whatever subject and medium my "match" chose. I guess if I had a choice I'd prefer a wood pendant or carving simply because I can't make one myself but it really doesn't matter. Maybe if an artist is worried about this they should just make something in whatever medium they feel most accomplished in. I know I will be using beach stone!
Your reasoning for keeping it until the end is sound...no outside influences or pressure to affect the act of creating. As for themes, I guess some people have certain styles they're comnfortable with and are probably going to produce better pieces if they're working in their favourite genre (as with medium).
Keeping entry open until Easter is a cool idea....anyone who can submit a finished work by the cutoff is in!? We might pick up another 6-10 artists during March if we keep bumping this thread with some good progress pics!
